In fact, they are so dirty (aka gross) that there are studies showing that preventable harmful contaminants were found in over 50% of mattresses that were cleaned regularly!! They estimated that typical home and hotel mattresses are much, much dirtier due to lack of regular cleanings! And that doesn't even begin to touch the air quality issue with dust mites and other air pollutants that surround a dirty mattress! And if you like to sleep as much as I do-- then that's a problem!
It is recommended that you wash your sheets weekly, but at most every 2 weeks. But what about your mattress? How often should you clean it? Well, it depends on some variables...
- Is your mattress without a Organic Mattress Pad
?
- Are pets allowed in your bed?
- Are their "accidents" at night?
- Do you eat in bed?
- Do you go to bed without showering first?
- Is your bed the location of sweaty hanky panky?
- Do you use your bed for more than just night-time rest?
